Amber visits Humane Rescue Alliance in Washington, D.C., where CEO Lisa LaFontaine shares how the organization is expanding its mission beyond sheltering to help pets and their families stay together. From affordable veterinary care and pet food assistance to the HOPE and Safe Haven programs, HRA is addressing the challenges that can force families to give up beloved pets. We also visit Gateway Pet Guardians, a Midwest pet resource center providing veterinary care, grooming, food assistance, community outreach, and other services to families in need. Plus, Amber shares leash-training tips, Dr. Courtney Campbell explains how to introduce a newly adopted dog to existing pets, Dr. Ross Henderson explores how play builds confidence, and we meet more adoptable dogs searching for homes.
